Maybe he took a vacation??? ...Unless the ECM guys put him out on disability.
Besides hes a KRE guy that decided on his own to be an allie, we didnt recruit him. Maybe he sees some familiar tactics???

Under cammed when compared to the 1.8 rocker ratio the cv enjoyed over the hi port.
You are pleased with a tenth advantage with more cam and a 70 cfm advantage? .
it was never us vs them for me. It is me and my $ for me. Youre free to spend yours as you like?
I did exactly what you guys want hedrick to do. I sold my stuff and moved on to other choices.
I didnt release my results to many out of courtesy to jim. I have no axe to grind with him. He knows how I feel about his choices In r n d and spokesmen. I had conveyed my opinions to him. Its his business his choices.
Funny thing. Within minutes of my post this morning I got a text from a camp member who knew and had felt many of the same things. Your "side" is sick of waiting too.
I refer you to my statement. Stop talking and start doing. Even you must be tired of being on the defense.

... whatever, rockers wont cause a 3+mph loss, and the CV's were faster, period ...

... ok, and you think im not tired of waiting, really ?? ... the point is Jeff, if these people would stop bashing and trashing the heads, Roland, just about anyone in the CV-1 camp at any given time, and myself, then we would go away, but they don't shut up, so then we wont shut up, its that simple Jeff, i dont know how else to explain that ... but it appears that had the perpetuators of this drama, had they not started the circus you complain of, you might still have your CV-1's, that is truely unfortunate ...

In my opinion ,Not capable of the same hp of multiple other available Pontiac heads. ( at least AS IS ) So at that point is there any need to look any deeper ?

......Clear enough ?......

I don't post much in the forum anymore but I have conversed with 4 different sets of owners of CV1 heads that moved away from them for one reason or another. You might listen to these guys because they "been there, done that".

Nice plastic spacer, did someone not calculate the runner length properly?

And that was 3-1/2 YEARS ago!
